When It Rains It Pours...

It seems that when one thing goes wrong everything else follows. It seems as if no matter how hard you try, its useless. You don't have enough money to pay the light, the cars tire blew out, your daughter needs new shoes, your son needs glasses, just on thing after the other. You can try to be positive and tell yourself that everything is going to be ok, and maybe you're doing ok, you're coping with the issues but there always that one thing that sets you off. Theres always that one simple thing that makes you go over the edge, it can be droping your soda or forgeting to feed the dog. But those little things are not the problem, the major things like; not enough money, unemployment, useless car those are the things that make the little things seem so major and they're not but we always tend to let them get to us. Somedays are good and others,well you just want to crawl into a hole and hibernate. If you think about it, worrying does not make tomorrow any better, it does not change yesterday, but it does take away todays peace. No matter how bad things are always remind yourself that if your alive everything else could be worked out. Don't let life break you, I know it's easier said then done but driving yourself crazy is not going to fix anything it's only going to add to your already over full plate. Learn to enojy the things that are good, always and I do mean ALWAYS think everything is going to work out, if you think "Nope it's over, this sucks I'm doomed" then thats excatly what will be. Don't let life bet you, fight back with everything you have.

Happy Late Thanksgiving :)

Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!!! Yesterday was a GREAT day to say the least. It was busy but it was spent with the MOST IMPORTANT people in my life. My mom and sister cooked a beautiful dinner and well I just ate and made funny comments all day haha. The day was filled with giggles from my nieces and nephews, laughter from my mother and insults (thats how we roll) from my sister, brother-in-law-, brother, and sister- in-law. We stuffed our faces until we could no longer breath, I'm still sick but that did NOT stop me from gaining at least 5 pounds haha. Yesterday I didn't have a care in the world, I didn't worry about bills or the fact that I still don't have a job :/  Yesterday I was a care free child again. I can honestly say I lived in the moment yesterday for the first time in years. Yesterday I was so thankful to be surrounded by my beautiful mother, my amazing sister, my annoying but so lovable little brother, my dorky brother-in-law, my crazy sister-in-law, and my sisters little devils, some people could'nt make it, but I was thankful to have them in my life none-the-less. It's days like yesterday that really put life in perspective, I really realized that despite all my worries, and problems I am truly blessed and loved, and for that I am thankful for EVERYDAY of my life. So Happy Belated Thanksgiving from my family to your's :)

Quote Of The Day

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.” 
                   - Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets

Never Be Again

I'll enjoy every moment of tonight because I know that when daylight comes it will all end. I'll dance until my feet can't move anymore. I'll sing until my voice is gone, because I know that when daylight breaks it will all be gone. I will love you until my heart can no longer bare it. I'll stare into your eyes until I go blind. I'll kiss you until my lips fall off. I'll hold your hands until they vanish. I'll be your princess and you'll be my prince, we'll live in a fairytale for a brief moment in time, I know that when daylight breaks our story will end. I'll feel your heartbeat under the palm of my hand, I'll feel your eyes looking into my soul, I'll remember every part of you because I know that when daylight breaks we'll be no more. I'll engrave you to every part of my being, before it's all gone. I'll tell you I love you as much as I can, because I know once daylight comes we'll fade away, and we will never be again.

“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” 
                -Friedrich Nietzsche

I'm sick, now where is my mommy??

So I'm sick as a dog and all I want to do is lay down on the sofa and watch T.V and have my mom baby me. Everytime I'm sick no matter what all I want is my mommy, I want her to baby me and make me tea and sing me back to sleep like when I was a child. I think the reason all of us want our mommys when we're sick is because our mommy is the only person that knows how to makes us feel better may it be with or without medicine there's no-one like mom to make your fever, and cough go away. There's something special about mom's no matter how sick your are she's the only person that can make you feel better just with her very presence or a simple caress. No matter how old I get everytime I'm sick all I will ever want is my mom to hold my hand and tell me "You'll be better before you know it, now go to sleep." Besides the fact that when I'm sick I do milk it for all it's worth because I know as soon as I get better the babying will stop and the clean the restroom will start all over again. So I shall stop writing now because my mom is calling me apparently I have ginger tea to drink. You got to love yoor momma shes the BEST!! I know mine is :)

My writing

I've been working on writing my own book for a while now, it's challenging. Writing an actual book is harder than writing a poem. I've spent a lot of time thinking through my ideas making sure they are well thought out, cohesive, and well written. I don't want to write a book that dosen't make sense or that isn't fully developed I want to provide my best writing for the world. I've already completed my first chapter and I have already began writing the second one!! Talking about my writing and letting people know what I'm writing and if I'm writing is something completely foreign to me. I've never let ANYONE know about my writing I've always been scared and embarresed, why? I'm not entirely sure why myself, maybe its because my writing has always been my secret it has always been my getaway my escape from the world, and at times the only place where I felt that I was good enough that I belonged somewhere. Writing is my PASSION its the one thing I feel that I'm actually good at, I never want to do anything else in the world. When I get inspiration for a poem, or story it's an exhilarating feeling. I can be anywhere and BAM! I get an idea, and most of the time I write it down on my arm so I won't forget, I never have paper with me. I can get an Idea from a word, a sentence, a feeling from anything. I love turning simple words like; "Never has" to "Never has a love like this meant anything more to anyone than what it means to me, never has my heart loved so hard and feared losing so much". Writing is what I believe I'm best at, and I'm slowly letting people know that writing is what I want to do for the rest of my life. So just letting you guys know this is a BIG step for me so here I go.......I'm a WRITER and someday I hope and pray that I'll be a published one!!

P.S
      I'd tell you guys the name of my book but I haven't decided yet, I'm still playing around with the title. :)

                   - Dr.Seuss, Happy Birthday to You!

Happy Happy Happy Birthday!!!!

Birthdays who doesn't love them right? The cake, the ice cream, the presents, and all the love from everyone around you! Birthdays are not only great to celebrate because of the cake or presents, but because it's another year that someone has survived this little thing we call life. It's another year that you've been able to share your life with your loved ones. Birthdays should be celebrated because it's the day that your; mother, father, brother, sister, friend was born into this world that eventually made your life better. Birthdays only come around once a year for everyone and why not make that person feel special?? Everyone loves their birthday wether they say they do or don't. Celebrate every birthday every year every chance you get because you never know which one will be their last or yours for that reason. So if your birthday is coming up or recently passed HAPPY BIRTHDAY and may you have many many more to come .

P.S
    HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEST FRIEND SAMANTHA, I HOPE YOU HAVE MANY MORE BLESSED YEARS!! I LOVE YOU SAMMI WAMMI :)

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” 
                         - Lao Tzu

19 year old Zoe Everett

A 19 year old college student went from worrying about exams and what party to go to, to being a mother in a blink of an eye. Zoe Everett from New Jersey lost both her parents in hurricane Sandy when a tree feel on their car, her brothers Theo and Pierce were also in the car but survived with minor bumps and bruises. Zoe quit school to raise her 3 siblings, all Zoe was asking for was to be able to come up with $5,000 dollars to get by for a few months untill lawyers figure out how to procede with her parents estate. And in an overwhelming help from complete strangers they raised over $56,000 dollars in one day!! Many people offered their help from driving her siblings to school or a simple shoulder to cry on. I applaud Zoe for being a brave young woman to take on such a role as mother and father. She dose'nt have to put her life on hold, she dose'nt have to raise her brothers and sister she dose'nt have to do any of it, but she is and that my dear friends is extrordinary and brave beyond her years. Such courage and love in one person to take on such a tough role but I'm sure her siblings will forever be grateful for having such an amazing and loving sister I'm sure her parents are beyond proud of her.Best of Luck to you Zoe, Theo, Pierce and Talia and my condolences to your family and all others that have lost a loved one due to hurricane Sandy.

November 8th in History

                                  Wilhem Conrad Rontgen

On this day November 8 in 1895 a German physicist named Wilhem Conrad Rontgen (pictured above) became the first person to observe an x-ray. Rontgens discovery was labeled as a medical miracle and in 1897 x-rays were first used on a military battlefield (The Balkan War), to find bullets and broken bones. Scientist realized the benefits of x-rays but they didn't know the harmful effects of the radiation. Some years later scientist started reporting cases of burns and skin damage after exposure to the x-rays, and in 1904 Thomas Edisons assistant Clarence Dally died of skin cancer due to the extensive exposure of x-rays, her death caused scientist to take the risk of radiation more seriously. Wilhem Rontgen recieved many awards for his work, and in 1901 he was the first to recieve the Nobel Prize* for physics. As we all know x-rays are an important part of the medical field that allow us to see inside the body without surgery, so thank you Mr.Rontgen for stumbling upon x-rays you have saved us all from a lot of unnecessary pain!

A round of Applause for the Queen Creek High Football Team!!

Today I have a great story that gives you a little bit more hope in humanity. A special needs student in Queen Creek, Az named Chay Johnson was the new girl, and as we all know being the new kid is hard but add special needs and it gets a lot tougher, Chay has a brain disorder. Chay was bullied by fellow students and some even threw trash at her! Chays mother got in touch with one of Chays friend and he just happened to be the starting Quarterback for the Queen Creek Football team. As we all know being on the football team automatically makes you one of the coolest kids around, but also in most cases the kid that does the bullying but not in this case. Jones took it upon himself to sit with Chay at lunch and protect her, not only does Jones protects her but the entire football team does!! Thats right the entire Queen Creek High Football team protects Chay. Since the boys have started protecting Chay no-one has bullied her anymore, she is one lucky girl. Not only is she no longer being bullied but she is surrounded by all those cute guys! All we hear are about all this horrible stories about bullying and all the pain that bullies cause those they bully, and here there is one story, one story that gives you hope and makes you smile. This one story lets you know that there is still great, caring people in this world that help others when needed. This one story gives you a renewed ray of hope in humanity. Not only has the football team helped Chay, they've also let people know that bullying will not be tolerated and that those that are being bullied are no longer alone and no longer have to be afriad, and that there is still good hearted people in this world. Good job boys!!

Tucson Comic Con

So today was an adventure for me, I stepped out of my confort zone and went somewhere that I would normaly never go, I went to Tucson's Comic Con. I must admit I had reservations about going I'm not into comic books, or anime any of that even though my little brother does and talks about it all the time. I thought to myself "why are you going?" why? because your friend asked you over a month ago to go with her and you said yes thats why! Oh yea". So I didn't want to let my friend down and I had already promised her that I would go so I did. When we arrived I was still a bit reluctant to go and even thought maybe I'll just wait outside and wait for them, but knowing my friend she would of never let me stay outside (she is very stubborn). So I walked in and at first I was like "Wooh baby where am I? You are completely out of place." But as we began to walk around I started to enjoy myself. People where dressed up some where Batman, Spiderman, Captain America there was even someone dressed as Sailor Moon! Do you remember Sailor Moon? No? well I do. It was a great atmosphere and much to my disbelief I enjoyed it, and most certainly would go back. I have no clue if I enjoyed it so much because I was with friends or because the excitment was contagious but I did like it none-the-less. The only problem is that I didn't take enough money to buy anything because I didn't think I'd like anything, but boy was I wrong :/ Next year I will remember to take money and I will most definitely take my little brother because he would of loved it!!

Can I have a hug?

Hug anyone you can, you know unless you're a student at Adam Road Primary School in Australia. That's right an Australian school has banned hugging due to excessive amount of hugging that has led to injuries and class disruptions. Can you believe that? I understand that most schools have a no PDA (Public Display of Affection) rule but hugging has never been  necessarly considered part of that rule. If your kissing or touching each other inappropriately than yes, but a simple hug? A hug can change a persons day it's something so simple but it can make a person feel better if they are having a crappy day. I for one think hugging is not a big deal it is not inappropriately and it certainly is not a big offence to were a child has to be given detention for hugging a friend. Don't get me wrong some rules are needed to keep everyone from complete chaos but too many rules make people want to do the opposite. Schools want their students to get along and be kind to one another and be friendly, but when you take hugging away from them which just happens to be the most common form of showing, friendship and kindness,what's left? Handshaking? Handshaking gives people the opposite affect of hugging (at least to me) when I shake someones hand it's because I don't feel comfortable around them and I close myself off and keep the conversation short. Maybe I'm being biased but lets be honest everyone hugs it's no big deal and hugging makes you happy, and when you're happy you spread that happiness around and you have a better day. I think the school should reconsider baning hugging and if they don't I hope they inforce it with everyone including teachers, the principal, administrators,etc because kids follow what they see and if the adults that made this decision don't follow they're own rule don't expect the kids to either remember "Practice what you Preach". By the way did you know that there is a National Hugging Day? Well you do now it's January 21st.
